Deathconsciousness is the debut studio album by American post-punk band Have a Nice Life, released on January 1, 2008 on Enemies List Home Recordings. The album is a double album; the first disc is entitled "The Plow That Broke the Plains", the second one entitled "The Future". The album was reissued in 2009 by Enemies List, re-pressing the album on vinyl and CD, with new cover art. The reissue included a 70-page booklet with various paintings and lyrics.[2] The album has gained a substantial cult following in recent years as a result of its bleak subject matter and lo-fi production. Another reissue of the double-album was released September 17, 2014 by Enemies List and The Flenser.[3]
Album art
The album cover is a cropped version of the Jacques-Louis David painting, La Mort de Marat (English: The Death of Marat), which documents the death of French revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat.
